Macroram Ramming Products

These monolithics are manufactured with selected magnesia, dolomite, bauxite, alumina and proprietary binders.  They are supplied in a semi-dry state and are installed with pneumatic rammers to achieve the optimum density. Macrorams fill the gaps around well blocks and between the ladle floor and walls.  The high alumina versions are also used in roofs. The chemistry of the ramming mix is selected to suit the metallurgy involved and to be compatible with the adjacent brick lining.
